Nigerians react to CNN’s mockery of Buhari’s health

Nigerians on social media, particularly on Twitter, have reacted to Cable News Network (CNN)’s trolling of President Muhammadu Buhari for leaving the country on medical vacation for over 85 days.

Fareed Zakaria of CNN had on Sunday quizzed president’s absence from the country when he asked: “The head of state of which country has not set foot in his homeland in over two months.”

Nigeria was listed among the options as option C, while Saudi arabia, Cuba and Syria were on the list.

Below are some of the reactions of Nigerians:
Lere Olayinka @OlayinkaLere: “So sad, Nigeria now a joke even on CNN. Buhari Media Centre guys can @Laurestar and others can start abusing CNN too.”
